A BRIGHT OUTLOOK.
Encouraging News From the Teton
Valley-A Model Stock arm
a Fruitful Country.

Eol. Jesse F. Taylor who is visiting
Great Falls is, as most people know, a vet
eral, ssock-raiser and farmer as well as a
b-oGr aent member of the Legislature. he
taxes just pride in the splendid ranch
w,,iea he owns on the Teton, where he
has fine horses and cattle. Regarding this
season Mr.. Taylor says: 'This is a fine
country for timothy. Robert Ford has
timothy that is over four feet high n
will produce tons to the acre. 1t excels
ANYTHING that | nave ever seen in Ken
lucky. Illinois or Missouri, which have
each rich lands. On my W rancho | have
a field of oats which has been raised with
out irrigation and promisesto yield alarge
crop. The Teton valley is the finest IN
the world. For those who prefer irrlga-
ton there is abundance of water-rnoun-
tain streams in facial through the val
lev. The grass this year is very rich and
al the growing crops are f1onrishing. The
cattle and horses are i%nsplendid condition
and the wool-growers are receiving better
prices for their staple"
A GREAT CATTLE COUNTRY.
Relative to cattle, Mr.. Taylor says:
sThe cattle business is UNDERGOING a
change, for which myself and others have
prepared. The large nge are breaking
up here as we'll rs elsewhere; but this will
| always be a great cattle country and our
people will adapt themselves readily to
| the new conditions. Weacan breed and
raise as fine cattle and sheep as any part
O: the country. The pilgrim cattle. as
| they are called. which come here from
Texas do not stand the winter as well as
| the native cattle; they loose weight in win
ter and it takes a good while to make up
for it in the spring"
THE RAILROAD WILL Do GOOD.
Like all progressive men Mr.. Taylor is
pleased at the approach of the locomotive
and expects great benefits from it for the
range and farm interests. He says:
aWllen the Manitoba line is open next
| fall it will he only a short drive from the
Teton valley to the track. Our stock-rals-
ers vii! then ha allie to send to Chicago or
st. Paul from 100 to 500 head, as suits
them, instead of large droves as at pres
emf. Myself and Others send cattle at
times bv the Canadian Pacific, which de
We them by way OF Winnipeg and the
anhoba road at Chicago in five days.
r'ne Canadian road is giving close atten-
ii.oa 70 the cattle business and allows
IS with cattle to go ahead of those
x. passengers and general freight. Ma
| pie Geek, to which we send our cattle, is
$50 niles from the range. | believe in
! time there will be a branch of the Mani
toha road IN the Teton valley, which will
enable US to ship cattle almost at our own
Doors
Mr.. Taylo: is we'll pleased with the
general growth and appearance of this
city where he has many friends:

PROBABLE RESULTS.

III good management MIR. Vaughn's
stock farm is equal to the best in Mon
tsna. Last summer he close herded all
the stock which included 112 cows and
43 yea ling heife.s. The stock as already
stated came through the winter in fine
condition, and tue IS yearlings have al
Tesdy pt ouueed 81 calves. which is nearly
10 per cent. Tue COWS have calved to the
extent of fully 95 per eut. The bulls are
imported Herefords and the cows are
graded sho tnorns. In consequence of
this good care and breeding the calves
com mana a high figure they are
PLACED on the market. MIR. Vaughn is
confident that no herd, 1000 strong, OF
,ange cattle can show as good a proportion
of calves. He considers that that the eN-
pense of keeping a herdsman during the
summer months is no greater mar that OF
The roundup, in proportion, while the gain
is decidedly greater.

Roe's Great Earthquake Story

Arrangements have been perfected
whereby Mr.. E. P. Roe's latest work,
"Mara Story of the Charleston Earth
quake,'' will be published in the Sunday
News and the Weekly Neaps and. Courier.
"Mara" is strong love story that culmi-
mates among the terrible scenes of the
never to be forgotten earthquake of
August 81, 1886. It presents, with dra-
matte picturesqueness, remarkable phase
of American experience, and incidentally
brings out one great fact-Northern good
will towards the South, as shown by the
spontaneous outpouring Of sympathy
and gifts, and the effect of this fraternal
spirit on the South. This story will un-
doubtedly be the greatest work Of nov
elist Of. widespread popularity: twill be
published as serial, and will begin on
the first Sunday in June. AS it may not
be possible to supply the demand for
back numberS, everybody should sub
scribe at once for either the Sunday or
Weekly Ncus and Courier. The annual
subscription to the Sunday News is 81, and

Rold Thieves.


- Last Sunday morning, Mr. A. T., Moss,
who clerks for Moss S Brown, OIL enter
inr their store found the back door stand.
ing open. He was astonished at this, as
he remembered distinctly to have locked
the door when he left the store on the pre-
celing night. Mr.. Moss at once began in
vestigating to sec if anything had been
stolen from the store. His first thought
was of the money drawer, aud on going
to it, he found that it had been prized open
and removed. Going on back to the open
door, he found the money drawer, but its
contents, with the exception of few cop
pers, were gone. About $4,000, all of 1t
silver, had been left in the drawer satur-
day night. No goods were missed. The
police were notified, and they at once
went to work on the case.
Sunday was lovely day, and the livery
stables were literally patronized. Among
those who had secured livery turnout for
the day was Robert Kicks, a worthless
young negro. The police knew that Kicks
never worked long enough at time to
get sufficient money ahead to hire buggy
and horse, and they Kept their eyes on
him. During the day they learned that
Kicks had made some purchases at a
clothing store that morning, and had been
quite liberal in treating his friends. On
Monday morning Ricks was arrested and
carried to Moss & Browns store. Mr..
Moss questioned Ricks very closely, and
after denying any knowledge of the crime
and telling numerous lies, he finally con-
fessed that he and another young negro,
named Ed. Litman, were the guilty par
ties. Kicks said that he and Litman came
into the store an hour OF. more before Mr..
Moss closed up, and, watching an ,oppor-
tunity, secreted themselves in the cellar.
When everything got quiet, they came
out, and, securinga piece of iron, priced
open the money drawer, secured its con.
tents, together with lot Of tobacco and
cigars, unlocked the back door (the Key
having been left in the door on the inside)
and made their exit.
A warrant was. sworn out for both the
negroes. Ricks was committed to jail,
and an officer went on the hunt of Lit
man, who resides q few miles from the
city. Litman saw the officer approaching
and Immediately fed, but was captured
Monday night and lodged in Jail.
This was bold scheme, and the thieves
deserve the full penalty Of the law. Kicks
is an old offender, having served term in
the penitentiary two or three years ago.

The farmers are now well up with their
work-better than is customary. They
have worked with vim, from early morn
until latest eve, and have seemed to be more
cheerful over their work than is common.
Tie weather has. been very favorable on
those who had General Green to contend
with, but now his forces are routed and his
forts taken.
We are not considered grumbling peo-
pie, brt still T hear some wishing this dry
wind would stop blowing, and these cold
nights would turn to warmer ones, and
that we could get good rain now, and
many other wants satisfied. a good season
now would make the farmer feel little
better, and would do some good to the
growing crop, but if we can't get It we will
have to do without and be contented but
there are some people who would not be
contented if they had it in their power to
have every blessing they could ask for, and
I reckon it is best hat we have to do as we
can, and be patient in all things, whether
it suits our fancy or not.

west Anderson Items.

From the reports of the 'item writers"
Anderson County seems to be on boom
for big crop. We Western boys have the
finest prospect for good crop we have had
for several years. We are not disposed to
brae on our individual prospect, but can
say we have several acres Of bottom on The
Savannah River in corn that will make 70
bushels per acre, if there is no disaster
The remainder of our bottom will make
from 20 to 40 bushels per acre. We cannot
say SO much for our cotton drop. Some OF
our farmers are thinking of turning their
cotton farms into stock farms, and stop
planting cotton at all.
We hope Anderson County will yet ge1
the Experimental Farm, for we believe 1t
would be great help to young men who
are Just starting in life, and have to make
their own experiments. We profess to
know one or two things by experience, but
let me tell you, boys, it cost us like rips be-
fore we learned it. We heard man say
the other day that We should always pc
careful how we braced our opinions against
another's experience, to which we say,
amen
Some of our young bachelors are not
satisfied with their lot in this part of the
country, and are talking of trying life some
where else. Poor fellows, they get but
little sympathy.
There are two things we would like TO
see our people do. The first is, pay our
preachers, and pay them willingly, cheer.
fully, promptly and literally. The second
is, listen to them when they are preaching
instead of turning their heads every time
some one comes in. If We will do this, we
are satisfied the ministers will feel better,
and more like preaching lpEM.
